Help find Megan's Little Orphan Annie

Regular readers will know that I have a great deal of respect for genealogist-author Megan Smolenyak Smolenyak. Yesterday she posted on her blog, Megan's Roots World, the story of Annie Moore, the first immigrant to land at New York's Ellis Island. Annie arrived from Ireland on 1 January 1892 with her brothers Anthony and Phillip. Read the article here. Megan is looking for the real story and is offering $1,000 to anyone who can discover what actually happened to Annie. Did she perhaps come to Canada?
